Kasabian - The Black Whistler

To The Black Whistler που βρισκεται στο EP των Kasabian, West Ryder είχε πρωτοεμφανιστεί σε μια από τις εκδοχές του σινγκλ Empire το 2006.


Two shots in the morning, take it easy on yourself
A banging head from yesterday
Pidgeons flap so freely, now the landlord kicks the door
Fetch your chair, it's not that hard

'cuz we're so happy
I said we're happy at being sad


So wake up, oh wake up
'cuz I don't wanna fight with you no more
So wake up, foh wake up
We'll forget about the jungle on the floor
We can forget about the jungle on the floor


One is for my love, and the other for my hate
I guess that really sums us up

'cuz we're so happy
I said we're happy at being sad


So wake up, oh wake up
'cuz I don't wanna fight with you no more
So wake up, foh wake up
We'll forget about the jungle on the floor
We can forget about the jungle on the floor
We can forget about the jungle on the floor

Kane - No Surrender

Από τα καλύτερους μουσικούς εκπροσώπους της Ολλανδίας τα τελευταία χρόνια οι Kane κυκλοφορούν σήμερα το νέο τους άλμπουμ No Surrender με πρώτο σινγκλ το ομότιτλο τραγουδι.
Το επίσημο βίντεο του τραγουδιού εδώ.

I was up, I was down,
I felt almost everything.
I was lost, been around,
still no hardly anything
get my feet on the ground
and the heart of everything (It's just the way that I want it)
It's just the way that I want it

Like a shark, for the bait.
You have been always waiting there.
Everytime, just too late.
Now at last you're standing there
What a fool what a shame
and the heart of everything (It's just the way that I want it)
It's just the way that I want it

Tonight's tonight
Time to leave the pressure behind
There's no surrender, no

In the heart, at the root,
There's always something now.
In disguise, understood,
And the blame for someone else,
The time I will find
Was the heart of everything (It's just the way that I want it)
It's just the way that I want it

I don't know why
I guess it's just a matter of time
But there's no surrender, no , no surrender.

It's just the way that I want it

Tonight's tonight
Time to leave the pressure behind
There's no surrender, no
There's no surrender, no
There's no surrender, no surrender

I was up, I was down

I swear to God, in this light and on this evening,
London's become, the most beautiful thing I've seen.

I swear to God, I heard the Earth inhale,
moments before it spat its rain down on me.
I swear to God, in this light and on this evening,
London's become, the most beautiful thing I've seen.

I swear to God, I heard the Earth inhale,
moments before it spat its rain down on me.
I swear to God, in this light and on this evening,
London's become, the most beautiful thing I've seen, ah!

I swear to God...
I swear to God...

Πρώτο σινγκλ το
Papillon



Make our escape, you're my own papillon,
The world turns too fast,
Feel love before it's gone,
It kicks like a sleep twitch,
My papillon, feel love when it's shone
It kicks like a sleep twitch

Darling, just don't put down your guns yet,
if there really was a God here,
he'd have raised a hand by now.
Now Darling, you are born, get old and die here,
Well, that's quite enough for me.
We'll find our own way home somehow.

No sense of doubt or what you could achieve,
I'd help you out, I've seen the life you wish to leave.
Oh well, it kicks like a sleep twitch.
You will choke; choke on the air you try to breathe.
It kicks like a sleep twitch.

Darling, now just don't put down your guns yet.
If there really was a god here,
He'd have raised a hand by now.
Darling, now you are born, get old and die here.
Well that's quite enough for me, dear,
We'll find our own way home somehow.

It kicks like a sleep twitch.
It kicks like a sleep twitch.

Wolfmother - Cosmic Egg

Από το ομότιτλο (Cosmic Egg) δεύτερο άλμπουμ των Wolfmother, που κυκλοφόρησαν στις 23 Οκτωβρίου.



Walking through the gallery of light
Say hello to all those wayward eyes
Light up and cast your fears away

Look into what you've learned
How does it feel to have yearned?

The gift that she gave was given to be given away

Tell me all of your good reasons
Tell me every word you say
I've given you all of the seasons
Running through the night and day

I'm going out of my mind since I've seen you
Tell me how I got to live this way

I take a look around this town
People get up but they don't get down
Standing on the edge of nowhere

Tell me all of your good reasons
Tell me every word you say
I've given you all of the seasons
Running through the night and day

I'm going out of my mind since I've seen you
Tell me how I got to live this way

Stereophonics - Innocent

Keep Calm and Carry On ονομάζεται το νέο LP των Stereophonics, που κυκλοφορεί από τις 13 Νοεμβρίου. Το Innocent είναι το πρώτο σινγκλ ενώ δωρεάν διαθέτουν μέσα από τη σελίδα τους το κομμάτι που ανοίγει το άλμπουμ She`s alright εδώ.

I remember walking 'round the street that night
I remember people talking about their lives
One of us never made it home that night
Drunk and high got the better of her mind
Jenny died

The setting sun with music on
The risk and day was on
You can't see with the sun in your eyes
You're innocent

You think everything is possible
Nothing's gonna get you baby
Everything is touchable
Nothing's gonna beat you in this life
It's alright

Holding hands, drinking cans in the orange lights
Summer breeze, feeling free, kissing the first time
One of us never made it home that night
Easy luck, someone said, give this stuff a try
Jenny tried

The railway bridge
The river flow with shallow water
Down below
You can't see with the sun in your eyes
You're innocent

You think everything is possible
Nothing's gonna get you baby
Everything is touchable
Nothing's gonna beat you in this life
It's alright

The setting sun with music on
The risk and day was on
You can't see with the sun in your eyes
You're innocent

You think everything is possible
Nothing's gonna get you baby
Everything is touchable
Nothing's gonna beat you in this life
(You think everything is possible)

Nothing's gonna get you baby
Everything is touchable
Nothing's gonna beat you in this life
It's alright

Dino Valente / Time/ Children Of The Sun ++ Quicksilver Messenger Service - Just For Love Part 1 / Dino's Song

-
15 χρόνια συμπληρώνονται σήμερα από το θάνατο του Dino Valente ή Valenti (πραγματικό του όνομα ήταν το Chester (Chet) William Powers), μιας από τις μεγάλες μορφές που συνύφαναν το θρύλο των Quicksilver Messenger Service. Περισσότερες πληροφορίες στη σελίδα που έχει φτιαχτεί γι αυτόν όπου μπορείτε να ακούσετε και τα τραγούδια του περιδιαβαίνοντας τη δισκογραφία του.

Dino Valente -Time



Time slipping away, new dreams born every day
Suddenly, these dreams are behind you
Ever falling like rain, changing again and again
Is there someone who loves you
We may only be here one time...for all anyone knows
and we already share one mind, what more could we ask for
than sunlight...born of the dawn, night dreams...having all flown
in tune with creation
We may only be here one time...for all anyone knows
and we already share one mind, baby what more could we ask for
Than time, slipping away, new dreams born everyday

In tune with creation


Dino Valente - Children Of The Sun



Let me pull your coat my friend...the game you play you'll never win.
It's not a game that's played by rules...It's made by men to be played by fools.
Solitude that's all you'll gain...life is what you lose my friend.
You better stop! Take a look around, somebody can see you.
You feel that life is speeding by, you laugh to laugh and you end up cryin'.
All the others that you see, aren't half as real as they could be.
You hear them sayin it's all a game, wonder if you're goin' insane.
You better stop! Take a look around, I'm sure somebody loves you.
Ah come with me, take the lead, know you're mind.
There's no time to weep for those you'll have to leave behind.
Know as the river's run, you are children of the sun.
Live for love and life alone, there's no time to own anybody.
You go along with what you see, still you know you're not free.
You say of course I'm just one man, if they can't change it no one man can.
Yet it should be plain to see, they are they and we are we,
and hasn't anybody told you baby how much we need you?
Come away, take the lead, know you're mind.
No time , I wouldn't lie to you baby, there's just no time.
You know as the river's run, you are children of the sun.
Live for love and life alone, there's no time here to own anybody .
You think that you can fool em all, you say that life's a cherry ball.
Everything is alright, and nothin's got ya uptight.
Yet alone awake at night you're lyin', you think nobody hears you cryin'.
You better stop! Take a look around, baby I always hear you.
Come with me, take the lead, know you're mind.
There's no time to weep for those who'd rather sleep behind.
Know as the river's run, you are children of the sun.
Live for love and life alone, there's no time in your mind to own anybody.
There will be those who try to put you down, they'll say you don't know you're way around.
They'll tell you that you're not a gas, they'll tell their girlfriends you ain't got no class.
Do everything that they can do, to try get you thinking there's something radically wrong with
you better stop! Take a look around, honey they got all the problems.
Then come away, take the lead, know you're mind.
There's no time baby to weep for those who'd obviously rather sleep behind.
Know as the river's run, you are children of the sun.
Live for love and life alone, there's no time to spend bendin you'r mind,

Tryin to find some way to own anybody.


***********************
Quicksilver Messenger Service-Just For Love Part 1



Just for love, like the wings of some high flying bird
are the songs I will sing to you, you can hear every word
that I ever heard, come to you

Of the people I've been, of the visions I have seen
Of the things I think about, of situations I've been in sometimes
and the places I have been at times, just tryin to be

These things can only happen, once in a lifetime
These things can only matter here if you have time
Someone will touch you softly, and it will be me
Someone will call your name and then come to me free

Free as the wind
Free as the rain falling
Free as the night
Free as nature calling

*******************
Quicksilver Messenger Service-Dino's Song*



I don't ever want to see you crying,
And I don't ever want to see you blue,
oh no, all I ever wanted to do was know you
And maybe hope you could know me too.
Well I don't ever want to make you sorry
For anything you've ever said or done,
Oh no, all I ever wanted to do was love you,
And maybe hope you could love me too.
And it's all right baby, I'm in love with you,
And it's all right, I would never make you blue or try to play with you,

Well I don't ever want to spoil your party, babe,
Or tell you where to go or what to do,
Oh no, all I ever wanted to do was know you,
There may be hope you could know me too.
And it's all right baby, I'm in love with you,
And it's all right, I would never make you blue or try to play with you,

Well I don't ever want to spoil your party, babe,
Or tell you where to go or what to do,
Oh no, all I ever wanted to do was love you,
There may be hope you could love me too

1997 - A Fearless Heart

Άλλο ένα πολύ καλό άλμπουμ από τους 1997. Έχει τίτλο Notes from Underground και κυκλοφόρησε στις 13 Οκτωβρίου.

Time moves slowly as of late
The world that is spinning looks more to me like a grave
So I'll run back to the quarry where all of my worries would fade
It's the place we belong clouded days

Your heavy heels will lift and they will take you far
Don't ever forget the will of your fearless heart

Well it wasn't a mountain but it was the highest point
We could find to escape from the city and make some noise
We would sneak past the trees and scream wild at the world so tame
They need power for lights will we dance through the night round the flame

Norah Jones - Chasing Pirates

To Chasing Pirates ανοίγει το νέο άλμπουμ της Norah Jones, The Fall που πρόκειται να κυκλοφορήσει στις 17 Νοεμβρίου.

In your message you said
you were goin' to bed
but I'm not done with the night.

So I stayed up and read
but your words in my head
got me mixed up so I turned out the light.

And I, don't know how
to slow it down.
My mind's racing from chasing pirates.

Well the man in there swings
while the silliest things
floppin around in my brain.
And I try not to dream
but them possible schemes
swim around, wanna drown me in synch.

And I, don't know how
to slow it down.
Oh my mind's racing from chasing pirates. x2

My mind's racin' from chasing pirates. x2

The Thermals - Now We Can See

Το ομώνυμο από το άλμπουμ (Now We Can See ) που κυκλοφόρησαν οι The Thermals την άνοιξη.

Oh way-ow oh-whoa-oh

We were born in the desert
We were reared in a cave
We conquered in the sun
but we lived in the shade
Yeah baby we were savage
we existed to kill
Our history is damaged
at least it was a thrill
But now we can see!
Now that our vision is strong
we dont have to admit we were wrong
Now we can see
but the images don’t stick
Our enemies lay dead on the ground
and still we kick

Oh way-ow oh-whoa-oh

Now we can see
The warnings and the signs
Reading between the lines
like writing on the wall
Now we can see
What do we need
We should need nothing
Nothing at all
Yeaaah!

We were born on an island
we grew out of the sand
Never saw another creature
never knew another man
Yeah baby we were nothin
we existed for less
Our present was empty
our history a mess
But now we can see
Now we do as we please
Now we do away with our disease
Now we can see
Now the image sticks
We still need the medicine quick
We still take the pill
…………..

Now we can see
The warnings and the signs
Reading between the lines
like writing on the wall
Now we can see
What do we need
We should need nothing
Nothing at all

Oh way-ow oh-whoa-oh

Yeah now we can see

Τρία καινούρια κομμάτια (ανάμεσα στα οποία και το σινγκλ Because of You) περιλαμβάνονται στη συλλογή, Smashes and Trashes που σηματοδοτεί δισκογραφικά την επιστροφή των Skunk Anansie.

Because of you
the tears dead in my eyes
they freeze until I’m blind
the eyes a gift from you

Because of you
the scratches on my face
will never be erased
by someone else’s warmth

Because of you
the boys will always say
”the bitch is back again
so none of you are safe”

Because of you
the winter feeds my heart
while summer blows and burns
my disappearing youth

My love is gone
Never feel again
Because of love
I feel nothing

Because of love
I feel nothing

Because of you
I’ll never bleed again
the agony of pain
will never bruise or start

Because of you
our passion tends to lead
with all my lovers fate
with pieces from my heart

My love is done
Never feel again
Because of love
I feel nothing

Because of love
I feel nothing

Because of you
Because of you

Because of love
I feel nothing

Because of love
I feel nothing

Marillion - Memory Of Water

Από το ακουστικό Less Is More που κυκλοφόρησε στις 2 Οκτωβρίου από τους Marillion, που είχαν πρόσφατα κυκλοφορήσει και το live Recital of the Script. Το Recital of the Script περιλαμβάνει ζωντανή ηχογράφηση της συναυλίας του συγκροτήματος στο Hammersmith Odeon στις 18 Απριλίου1983.


I wonder if my rope’s still hanging from the tree
By the standing pool where you drank me
And filled me full of thirsty love
And the memory of water?

‘Wonder if a king still fishes there
His back toward the burned out air
His laughing catches singing loud
The memory of water

Your taste is blood and ecstasy
But I must drink you all alone
You’re freckled like a speckled egg
A dove… but this bird has flown

O stay with me sweet memory
O stay with me

Wonder if my rope’s still hanging from the tree
By the standing pool where you drank me
As pain flows through me like champagne
Of the memory of water

Air - Heaven's Light

Από το πρόσφατο άλμπουμ των Air, Love 2 που κυκλοφορεί από τις 30 Σεπτεμβρίου.





On the Way to the Heaven's Light
Where the Time doesn't matter
You're so fine
Take my Hand
Put Me on the Top of the World

On the Way to the Heaven's Light
You were hiding behind the Moon
You're so fine
You walk in my Mind
Put Me on the Top of the World

On the Way to the Heaven's Light
Things go up, Things go down
Our Love stays around
Put Me on the Top of the World

On the Way to the Heaven's Light
On the Way to the Heaven's Light

If you haven’t got a ha’ penny then God bless you.
A soul, a soul cake, please good missus a soul cake.
An apple, a pear, a plum, a cherry,

Kill Hannah - Acid Rain

Από το Wake Up The Sleepers των Kill Hannah που κυκλοφόρησε στις 29 Σεπτεμβρίου.

Saw you in the rain,
Semi-torn apart,
With those alice cooper eyes watching the storm,
And you were so strange in that hurricane,
That I knew that I was just too late,

I will run with you,
In a silent film under the acid rain,
No one sees us cry under the acid rain,
So let it rain, just let it rain,

I still miss you now when it's pouring down,
I just hope that you remember,
When the fires raged for all night and day,
In our movie that was never made,

I will run to you,
Never let you go under the acid rain,
No one sees us cry under the acid rain,
So let it rain

Joss Stone - Free Me

Το πρώτο σινγκλ από το νέο άλμπουμ της Joss Stone, Colour Me Free που έπειτα από δύο αναβολές κυκλοφόρησε τελικά στις 20 Οκτωβρίου

Ain't I got you on my back foot
And you know I got to feeling good
Cause there’s something deep inside of me
I got to be

And if you find it hard to follow me
If I loose you in my creative stream
Than you only got to raise your eyes
And see me fly

Don’t tell me that I won’t
I will
Don’t tell me that I’m not
I am
Don’t tell me that my master plan
Ain't coming through

Don’t tell me that I won’t
I will
Don’t tell me how to think
I fell
Don’t tell me cause I know what’s real
What I can do

Something that you don’t see every day
A little girl who has found her way
In world that tries to take away
All of your dreams

I think there’s one thing I will say to you
That there is nothing that you can’t do
Cause it’s all about your attitude
Don’t let them get to you

Don’t tell me that I won’t
I will
Don’t tell me that I’m not
I am
Don’t tell me that my master plan
Ain't coming through

Don’t tell me that I won’t
I will
Don’t tell me how to think
I fell
Don’t tell me cause I know what’s real
What I can do

And when we’re singing it out our voice
We can make that choice to be free

Honestly, I know you like to keep a mystery
But there’s this girl I know who’s sad you see
And I’d like to show her life ain’t always real

Camilo that’s where you come in my friend
Show me your secrets show me all of them
I promise I won’t say a word again
And as long as I’m alive I’ll be the best that I can be

Ca-Ca-Ca-Camilo
I need to see where you make that card go
‘Cus I got some questions about the world I know
And about the difference between real and show
Camilo

Watch my eyes, put a coin in your hand now and squeeze real tight
I’ll make both sides and so will you decide
You’ll have complete control of your whole life

Camilo that’s where you come in
Be my assistant be my right hand man
We’ll find a place between fact and fiction
And as long as they don’t know we’ll be the masters of pretend

Ca-Ca-Ca-Camilo
I need to see where you make that card go
‘Cus I got some questions about the world I know
And about the difference between real and show
Camilo

Caroline, I saw your disbelief you’re mystified
Understandably, and so am I
Let’s make like enemies and disappear

Camilo
I need to see where you make that card go
‘Cus I got some questions about the world I know
And about the difference between real and show
Camilo, Camilo

But I've seen it so many times before
Put your bags down this time around

Stay with me

You've tried everything, yes everything
Now just stay
All your searching for
Can be found an so much more
No more running away
Stay

If you need healing aside,
I'm the way
To know your have purpose in life,
I'm the way
You can rest assured,
You will find all you've been looking for
Sit yourself down so I can be found

Chorus

I know you feel
That what you find here
Is less than the world has to give
But when did the world ever lay it's life down
So that you might live

Stay with me,
Dont you ever leave,
You've tried everything
Now just stay

Chorus

No More Running away (Stay)
No More Running away (Stay)
No More Running away
Stay

Creed - Overcome

Δικαιώνουν τις προσδοκίες που καλλιέργησε η είδηση της επιστροφής τους στη δισκογραφία οι Creed με το Full Circle που κυκλοφόρησε στις 27 Οκτωβρίου.

Don’t cry victim to me
Everything we are and used to be
is buried and gone
Now it’s my turn to speak
It’s my turn to expose and release
What’s been killing me
I’ll be damned fighting you
It´s impossible
Impossible
Say goodbye
With no sympathy

I’m entitled to overcome
Completely stunned, I´m numb
Knock me down, throw me to the floor
There’s no pain, I can feel no more
I’m entitled to overcome

Overcome

Finally see what’s beneath
Everything I am and hope to be
Cannot be lost
I’ll be damned fighting you
You´re impossible
Impossible
Say goodbye
With no sympathy

I’m entitled to overcome
Completely stunned, I´m numb
Knock me down, throw me to the floor
There’s no pain, I can feel no more
I’m entitled to overcome

Overcome

Overcome

You’ll never know what I was thinking before you came ‘round
Take a step, take a breath, put your guard down
I cannot worry anymore of what you think of me
I may be crazy, but I’m buried in your memory

I’m entitled to overcome
completely stunned i´m numb
knock me down throw me to the floor
there’s no pain i can’t feel no more
I’m entitled to overcome
overcome!
(repeat)

I may be crazy, but I’m buried in your memory

Leonard Cohen - The Future

Ζωντανή εκτέλεση του The Future που περιέχεται στο άλμπουμ του Leonard Cohen, Live in London


Give me back my broken night
my mirrored room, my secret life
it's lonely here,
there's no one left to torture
Give me absolute control
over every living soul
And lie beside me, baby,
that's an order!
Give me crack and anal sex
Take the only tree that's left
and stuff it up the hole
in your culture
Give me back the Berlin wall
give me Stalin and St Paul
I've seen the future, brother:
it is murder.

Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
Won't be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
has crossed the threshold
and it has overturned
the order of the soul
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant

You don't know me from the wind
you never will, you never did
I'm the little jew
who wrote the Bible
I've seen the nations rise and fall
I've heard their stories, heard them all
but love's the only engine of survival
Your servant here, he has been told
to say it clear, to say it cold:
It's over, it ain't going
any further
And now the wheels of heaven stop
you feel the devil's riding crop
Get ready for the future:
it is murder

Things are going to slide ...

There'll be the breaking of the ancient
western code
Your private life will suddenly explode
There'll be phantoms
There'll be fires on the road
and the white man dancing
You'll see a woman
hanging upside down
her features covered by her fallen gown
and all the lousy little poets
coming round
tryin' to sound like Charlie Manson
and the white man dancin'

Give me back the Berlin wall
Give me Stalin and St Paul
Give me Christ
or give me Hiroshima
Destroy another fetus now
We don't like children anyhow
I've seen the future, baby:
it is murder

Things are going to slide ...

When they said REPENT REPENT ...

Brett Anderson - Frozen Roads / Ashes Of Us / The Hunted

Ο Brett Anderson παρουσιάζει τρία από τα κομμάτια του Slow Attack που κυκλοφορεί αύριο 2 Νοεμβρίου.

Frozen Roads

And the snow in February falls, painting Winter hollow
And the fields they are an empty site, and the hills are like sorrow
And the hills are like sorrow

And your sun will rise again, and your moon will fall
And your sun will rise again, and your moon will fall
And your moon will fall

And I found the answer sitting there, with more than money
In the tangle of your angel hair, in your lips honey

And we were born muddled, but it was meant to be
And we were born muddled, but it was meant to be
It was meant to be

And your sun will rise again, and your moon will fall
And our sun will rise again, and our moon will fall
And our moon will fall

And the snow in February falls, painting Winter colours
And the fields they are an empty site, and the hills are like sorrow

Through the endless rage, on the frozen roads
On the frozen roads

Ashes Of Us

When the sky is clear, and the clouds are torn,
And the strange ones play, and the insects swarm

Falling like feathers, drifting like petals, pieces of paper
The ashes of us
Break like bone china, faces in mirrors, piece us together
The ashes of us

And the orchid grows, in a sunny place,
Where I sip my tea, with a scarecrows face

Falling like feathers, drifting like petals, pieces of paper
The ashes of us
Break like bone china, faces in mirrors, piece us together
The ashes of us

Woah woah woah (repeat)

The Hunted

Moving south she is here,
Circling round she is here,
She is the hunter, ah ha, you are the hunted,
She is the hunter, oh oh, you are the hunted,
You are the hunted,

Catching men in her net,
A bird of prey, collecting specimens,
She is the hunter, ah ha, you are the hunted
She is the hunter, oh oh, you are the hunted
You are the hunted,
You are the hunted,
You are the hunted,

Moving in for the kill,
Thin as sin, she is here
She is the hunter, oh oh, she is the hunter,
Ah oh, ah ah

You are the hunted
